The Flowers That Bloom in the Spring- Tra La


I was feeling in the full bloom of spring when I visited New York last week. It was warm to the point that I did not need a jacket the whole time I was there, even at night. The trees went from beginning buds to almost full leaves in the few days I was visiting. Daffodils were in bud one day and had broken into bloom the next. I had visions of getting out my lawn chair and relaxing in the back yard as soon as I got back home. Unfortunately, it was in the forties here and not yet fit for back yard lounging. I went back into winter mode and rode out the rest of the week in my winter coat. It was great to have a promise of spring and a taste of what is to come.
